To have her here in bed with me, breathing on me, her hair in my mouth—I count that something of a miracle.

A cup of coffee, a cigarette, the penetrating aroma of its smoke, myself sitting in a shadowy room with eyes half-closed…I want no more from life than my dreams and this…It doesn’t seem much? I don’t know. What do I know about what is little and what is a lot?

Fernando Pessoa (via unmaiden)

[wordsnquotes]

Personally, I’m a mess of conflicting impulses—I’m independent and greedy and I also want to belong and share and be a part of the whole. I doubt that I’m the only one who feels this way. It’s the core of monster making, actually. Wanna make a monster? Take the parts of yourself that make you uncomfortable—your weaknesses, bad thoughts, vanities, and hungers—and pretend they’re across the room. It’s too ugly to be human. It’s too ugly to be you. Children are afraid of the dark because they have nothing real to work with. Adults are afraid of themselves. Oh we’re a mess, poor humans, poor flesh—hybrids of angels and animals, dolls with diamonds stuffed inside them. We’ve been to the moon and we’re still fighting over Jerusalem. Let me tell you what I do know: I am more than one thing, and not all of those things are good. The truth is complicated. It’s two-toned, multi-vocal, bittersweet. I used to think that if I dug deep enough to discover something sad and ugly, I’d know it was something true. Now I’m trying to dig deeper.

"It seems so awfully simple and as though there were no problems at all," the girl said. “I found you and then all we ever had to do was eat and sleep and make love. Of course it’s not like that at all.” “"Let’s keep it like that for a while."

Ernest Hemingway, from The Complete Short Stories (via violentwavesofemotion)
